Phase Boundaries Among Three Hydrous Ferric Sulfates and Their Implications for Mars
Abstract Ferric sulfate minerals have been identified by orbital and landed missions at multiple locations on Mars and are the most common minerals in the Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) system on Earth. The occurrences and the speciation of ferric sulfates are very sensitive to variations in environmental conditions, such as temperature (T), relative ...

Using Venus, Earth, and Mars to Understand Exoplanet Volatile and Climate Evolution
Abstract Venus, Earth, and Mars exhibit a wide range of interactions between their deep interiors, surfaces, lower and upper atmospheres, and the Sun, with commensurate variations in the nature of their atmospheres and evolution of their volatiles. By examining these worlds' characteristics and behavior, we can gain some understanding of the breadth of

Multiple Outbursts of Halley-type Comet 12P/Pons–Brooks
We present optical observations of the Halley-type comet 12P/Pons–Brooks (12P) on its approach to perihelion. The comet was active even in the first observations at ∼8 au.

Abstract The Planetary Instrument for X‐ray Lithochemistry (PIXL) onboard the Perseverance rover has characterized the composition of Martian regolith at a scale of hundreds of microns using micro‐focus X‐ray fluorescence spectroscopy. PIXL data reveal a diverse population of regolith grains with distinct spectral, chemical, and crystallographic ...

High‐Fidelity Cretaceous‐Paleogene Boundary Investigations: Records of Impact and Transport
Abstract The Chicxulub impact on the Yucatán Peninsula triggered the end‐Cretaceous mass extinction 66 million years ago, but physical models still struggle to accurately describe ejecta generation and transport from this and other large meteorite impacts. To better constrain these processes, Kaskes et al.

A Specification Model of Saturn's Plasma Environment
Abstract We present the first empirical‐based specification model of Saturn's plasma environment based on the analysis of all publicly available plasma moment data sets derived using multiple techniques from Cassini observations made by the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer and the Radio and Plasma Wave Science instrument.
